|
GNU Units converts quantities expressed in various systems of measurement
|
|
to their equivalents in other systems of measurement. Like many similar
|
|
programs, it can handle multiplicative scale changes. It can also handle
|
|
nonlinear conversions such as Fahrenheit to Celsius or wire gauge, and it
|
|
can convert from and to sums of units, such as converting between meters
|
|
and feet plus inches.
|
|
|
|
Beyond simple unit conversions, GNU Units can be used as a general-purpose
|
|
scientific calculator that keeps track of units in its calculations. You
|
|
can form arbitrary complex mathematical expressions of dimensions
|
|
including sums, products, quotients, powers, and even roots of
|
|
dimensions. Thus you can ensure accuracy and dimensional consistency when
|
|
working with long expressions that involve many different units that may
|
|
combine in complex ways.
|
|
|
|
The units are defined in an external data file. You can use the extensive
|
|
data file that comes with this program, or you can provide your own data
|
|
file to suit your needs. You can also use your own data file to supplement
|
|
the standard data file.
